This Friday marks the return of Departed Spirit at The Parlour, our brewery tasting room. Over a year of aging in 8 year old Heaven Hill barrels has again left an enduring mark on Theophan the Recluse, infusing the roasted chocolate character already present in this imperial stout with notes of wood, bourbon and vanilla. With our strain of Belgian yeast providing a backdrop of flavor and character unique to most barrel aged stouts, you could say this delicious beer is a “departure” from the norm. Departed Spirit will continue to pour in our tasting room over the coming weeks and be available in market in bottles and on draft next week.
